Okafor disappears, fouls out in win
Emeka Okafor - C - New Orleans Hornets
April 17, 2011 - 6:25 PM ET
Emeka Okafor had just four points and two rebounds before fouling out of Sunday's Game 1, which the Hornets won in Los Angeles.
Luckily for the Hornets, Aaron Gray stepped up for 12 points on 5-of-5 shooting, while Pau Gasol was nearly just as invisible as Okafor today. The Hornets will need Okafor to play much better in Game 2, especially since Gray could be done for the series with a severely sprained ankle.
